Chapter 598 I Didn’t Say That (Part 2)

Princess Qinyang calmed down and nodded immediately: "Okay! Then--"

Suddenly, she seemed to realize something, and asked in a daze: "...Wait a minute, Longcheng is so far away, how are you going to find someone to check it out?"

Ye Chutang didn't take it seriously and said casually, "It just so happens that I have a friend near Longcheng. I calculated that I can get there in half a day."

Princess Qinyang finally felt relieved, but she still felt that something was not right.

Isn’t Ye Chutang from Qingzhou?

Even when something happened to the Ye family later, she fled south with her brothers and sisters and passed through many places, but it seemed... they had nothing to do with Longcheng, right?

"I didn't expect you know anyone over there... I followed my father to the southwestern border for several years. Apart from his subordinates, I wasn't very familiar with the others..."

Princess Qinyang was deeply moved and also felt a little admiration.

Ye Chutang usually looks gentle, calm and composed. He is polite to everyone, neither too familiar nor too distant.

But it is precisely this kind of person who is the most reliable at the critical moment! And he has a strong network of contacts!

Ye Chutang smiled and said, "In the past, when I opened a clinic, I came into contact with all kinds of people every day, so it was nothing unusual."

Princess Qinyang didn't think so.

"That's not the case! I've seen many doctors, but none of them is as good as you, you..."

After thinking for a long time, Princess Qinyang couldn't think of a suitable word to describe her, so she could only say, "Anyway, you are very different from others! You... are amazing!"

She looked at Ye Chutang seriously and made a solemn promise.

"As good as my brother!"

This is the highest evaluation given to Princess Qinyang.

Seeing that she was calmer, Ye Chutang felt relieved and said with a smile, "I dare not compare myself with the prince."

After all, Shen Yanchuan had many more enemies than her, and had suffered many more assassinations.

In comparison, she is simply a good citizen.

Princess Qinyang naturally didn't know what she was thinking, she just felt that being with Ye Chutang was like having a backbone.

Seeing Ye Chutang turn around and take the pen and ink, she couldn't help but ask, "Are you going to start writing a letter now?"

"The sooner the better."

Ye Chutang quickly wrote a letter.

Princess Qinyang felt that what she said was absolutely right, but...

"Longchang is so far away, it will take a long time to go back and forth, right? Moreover, the entire Longcheng has fallen now. It is really unsafe for your friend to go there to investigate alone! Otherwise, how about I wait for my brother to return home, and then I will go to him to borrow a few people, and go to Longcheng together to investigate?"

"That would be even more dangerous."

Ye Chutang shook his head and sealed the letter.

"The Black Cavalry are famous all over the world, and they are indeed powerful, but correspondingly, if one move is made by them, the whole body will be affected. Once someone notices that they suddenly went to Longcheng, it will definitely attract a lot of attention."

Ye Chutang paused, "Especially now."

Chen Yanchuan had just secretly sent people to Qingzhou not long ago. As soon as the Wazhen delegation left, he immediately placed the results of the investigation on Emperor Muwu's desk, catching everyone off guard.

At this moment, countless people are staring at him and his Black Guards.

It is even more difficult to move quietly.

Princess Qinyang was stunned for a moment, but soon realized that Ye Chutang's concerns were not unreasonable, and nodded immediately, "You are right... But, is it really possible to rely on your friend alone?"

The current Longcheng is a den of dragons and tigers!

If Ye Chutang's friend were to be in danger because of this, she would never be able to get over it.

Ye Chutang knew she was worried, so he smiled and comforted her, "Don't worry, my friend is a person who cherishes his life very much. If he finds something wrong, he will withdraw immediately. Besides... this letter won't take too long on the way, so it should be in time."

After hearing her say this, Princess Qinyang was finally completely relieved.

"That's good, that's good..."

Ye Chutang suddenly thought of something and paused.

"However, even if those people blocked all news about Longcheng, it seems that there shouldn't be no movement at all... King Yannan has been missing for so long, and the generals under him don't have any doubts?"

This question stumped Princess Qinyang.

She was stunned for a moment, and then she realized that something was wrong.

"...Yeah! Why didn't I think of that!?"

Princess Qinyang stood up suddenly.

She received the news in the early morning and was completely stunned. It was only when Ye Chutang reminded her that she realized something was strange!

She frowned, clenched her hands tightly, and paced back and forth anxiously.

"Perhaps it happened suddenly and the time was too short... The southwest has not been peaceful in recent years. There have been occasional rebellions in various places. My father and his men have become accustomed to it. Sometimes when they encounter a difficult one, they will fight for ten days, half a month, or even longer. Perhaps... they didn't take it seriously this time, thinking that my father was still fighting with those southern barbarians in Longcheng?"

There are many forks in the road in the southwest, with mountains and rivers crisscrossing, making it very difficult to travel.

Therefore, there are not many large-scale battles there, but it is more appropriate for small units to fight on their own.

Sometimes, during a fight, the enemy would hide in the mountains and disappear.

Even if King Yannan hadn't contacted his subordinates for several days, they probably wouldn't have thought that something had happened.

Everything is unknown. What we can do now is to find out the situation first and then make a judgment.

Ye Chutang came to the window.

Princess Qinyang looked confused, and the next second, Ye Chutang whistled.

The whistle sounded clear and melodious, and in this cold and frosty morning, it just sounded crisp and pleasant.

Princess Qinyang's lips moved, but before she could ask, she saw an eagle swooping down from the sky from nowhere, then folded its wings and landed on Ye Chutang's arm.

Ye Chutang casually picked up a handful of dried meat that Xiaowu had left over from the table and threw it to the dog, then tied the letter to its leg.

"Hurry up."

As she spoke, she patted the eagle's head gently.

The next moment, the eagle flapped its wings and flew away.

Ye Chutang turned around and blew on his slightly cold hands, "Okay. The message has been sent, just wait for that friend to reply."

Princess Qinyang was stunned.

She raised her hand stiffly, pointed to the place where the eagle disappeared, and then pointed at Ye Chutang.

"You, you, it... did you raise this? "

Ye Chutang tilted his head and thought for a moment.

“I guess so.”

Princess Qinyang couldn't believe it.

"You've been back in Beijing for so long, but you never told me that you raised an eagle!"

Ye Chutang looked at her strangely.

"I didn't say that, but I also didn't say that I didn't raise one."

Princess Qinyang: “……???”
